One suspect who was shot in the face by Reaction Officers died in Westville Prison a month ago due

to natural causes. The fourth suspect (not pictured) who was arrested a day later by the South African police was aquitted.
In passing sentence magistrate V.P. Noncembu said the swift action of Reaction Unit South Africa had resulted in the arrest of the suspects and recovery of the exhibits.
